Just got home from morning coaching session
Catching up, A worry to see Scott Kuggeljin playing a test he is not up to test cricket,it would have been better to blood a youngster for the experience, probably would not lose a lot short term but gain long term. -

Ordinarily the Outraged of Twitter are best ignored, but slightly conflicted feelings in this case, as they're being aggravated for a journeyman with no recent first class form to speak of. Maybe best to have gone with Duffy... or... arguably a bloke sitting 500m away watching via his WiFi.

Genuine question of - which one? I have no other names leaping to mind (maybe there should be). Doug Bracewell would have been ideal (gnashing of teeth from @MN5 aside

Maybe my thinking of blooding a youngster is because I see so many options in the Australian system.

I worry for NZ cricket going forward .Yep, it's a bit like the batting. Henry Nicholls goes rarely questioned and overrated because the replacement options get very thin on the ground after Will Young. We need to import more South Africans...

Yes. We won the WTC against the odds - but we are a long way from set up for long term success.

It seems the development pathways and high performance programs need a decent over haul.
